He said that he was going to continue to mess it up, but Wen Liang made a special trip to launch a remote multimedia phone meeting.
The last time I had any interaction with the company was on the 5th of the month.
Counting the time, more than half a month has passed.
In the meantime, Wen Liang did not disturb the work of everyone in the company, nor did the company personnel disturb Mr. Wen's peaceful life.
so……
The remote multimedia conference connection had just been established, and Wen Liang's image had just appeared. Mr. Ze directly mocked: "Hey, isn't this our Mr. Wen? I finally remembered that I still have a company. It's not easy. Xiao Wang Xiao Wang
Go buy some firecrackers."
Chen Jiaxin agreed unhurriedly: "In the blink of an eye, Mr. Wen is almost unrecognizable."
"Although I don't know if it's my imagination, why do I feel that Mr. Wen is a little dark? I had a great summer vacation." Tang Pu deliberately looked at people with his eyes raised, and said slowly.
Wang Wanyu also held her arms and expressed her dissatisfaction through gestures.
There were only four of them attending this meeting.
So the atmosphere is relatively relaxed.
The root cause is that Mr. Wen is too 'excessive'.
In the past month or so, I had never had any phone calls or emails for more than half a month across the country, and all official business was not handled.
Those who didn't know thought that Mr. Wen had gone into seclusion to cultivate immortality.
After waiting patiently for a few people to finish their taunting, he waved his hand gently and said: "You guys, don't understand my good intentions. I am giving you the opportunity to take the lead and fully exercise your comprehensive decision-making ability and overall coordination ability.
...how do you say that word, decentralization, yes! Decentralization.”
"Bolang is mine, yours, and everyone's. Anyone can run it without us. No matter what happened in the past or in the future, we always need to consider the possibility of offline operation."
"Didn't you do a great job this month? All matters were handled by yourself. There was no need to contact me for confirmation. The development status was low-key and orderly. You listened to the thunder in silence, which showed the excellence of the Bolang team.
Combat strength..."
Wen Liang could have talked for another five minutes if the expressions on their faces hadn't become worse and worse.
Wen Liang had no choice but to make a gesture: "Mr. Ze, please say a few words."
"Mr. Wen told me in advance that he would have a few days not to interfere with the company's operations." Li Ze almost pinched his nose and said, "It's just that these few days are a bit long."
So Wen Liang changed the subject: "Okay, let's not waste time talking about things that have already passed."
Then he cleared his throat: "I have a few small things to discuss with you."
"One is that I will not return to the company before mid-August. You will handle all the affairs. I will deal with urgent matters. During this period, I will go out for a walk. The main destinations are the focus group studio and the
Branch, city of subsidiary company.”
After hearing what Wen Liang said, Li Ze frowned slightly: "Isn't the frequency of top-down inspections and surveys this year a bit too high?"
"It's not high, it's even a little too low." Wen Liang said seriously, "The number of employees exceeds 100,000. To put it at a large scale, this is a matter involving 300,000 families. To say the least, we have not managed a very large scale.
Scale employee experience.”
"Although Mr. Xin, Mr. Yang and others have experience working in large companies, those large companies cannot compare with Bolang's current scale, and their experience is not fully applicable. They need to adjust step by step..."
"Bolang is a unique enterprise and has become a key intersection point of many interests and conflicts, so grassroots issues will become more and more important. You can think of Bolang as a small city, so that you can understand grassroots issues
The vital point.”
"In addition to walking around by myself, Lisuke will also lead a team to go down to the grassroots, focusing on the factory."
Indeed, based on the age distribution of Bolang Group’s current full-time employees, the vast majority of them live in their own home, their parents, and their partner’s parents, which indeed affects three families.
Especially the workers at the Bolang factory.
Because of the recruitment criteria that restricts people to be over 35 years old and the geographical location, most of them are the breadwinners of their families.
They have the simplest tolerance and easy satisfaction of Chinese people, but they also have family responsibilities that are as heavy as mountains and as deep as oceans to worry about, and every minor problem may turn into a serious incident.
This is not alarmist, refer to incidents such as jumping off buildings that Foxconn exposes from time to time.
Knowing that there is a possibility of such a tragic incident happening, the factory has only been partially on the right track this month, and it is highly adjustable and interferable, yet it is still indifferent. That is really not a gentle style.
In Wen Liang's opinion, human life is more important than heaven. It shouldn't be a slogan.
It is necessary to implement the management requirements in place.
In fact, Wen Liang asked the strategy department of Bolang Group to seriously consider these aspects when he first planned to establish the factory. In the end, he made the simplest one-size-fits-all decision: only recruit people over 35 years old.
At this age, all aspects of outlook, personality, etc. have been basically stable and formed. Generally and theoretically, they are less likely to have extreme emotions than the young men and women in their late 18s, 199s and early 20s who work in a large number of electronics factories in Guancheng and Pengcheng.
thereby giving up on yourself.
In short, unless the incident falls on oneself, it seems to be just a simple and light text report such as "On this day, so-and-so jumped off the building in such-and-such factory."
There are two different things between trying your best and seeing an incident happen and being indifferent and watching it happen.
To put it bluntly, this kind of move is considered to be a bitch, so what, as long as nothing happens, that's enough...
Although this matter did not bring direct commercial benefits, as Wen Liang expanded his emphasis, everyone also expressed their opinions and subdivided Wen Liang's meaning.
Determine which departments will consist of personnel to form a team, etc.
The final opinion is: form a normalized grassroots inspection mechanism, with senior executives participating from time to time to have a deterrent effect...
After the discussion was completed, Wen Liang talked about the next thing: "The second one is about the development of Starry Sky Semiconductor."
"My consideration is that even if the import of the originally planned photolithography machine covering the 28nm process is not blocked, we can still build momentum at the public opinion level. On the one hand, we can see the actual attitude of the overseas market, and on the other hand, we can see the actual attitude of the overseas market in the short term.
We cannot allow the prism to cool down in public opinion."
"Understood." Li Ze responded, "Keeping the popularity of Prism until the press conference is held late next month can reduce the difficulty of marketing the next generation of new products in the international market."
"As for advanced process lithography machines, even if we don't need them, Huahong and SMIC also need them. According to the current research progress, there is no way to replace advanced process lithography machines with domestic ones in a short time, and lithography machines are only part of lithography production.
This link is very difficult to adjust.”
Tang Pu agreed: "That's true."
"According to common sense, Western Europe and the United States are accustomed to forming an advantage of two or three generations ahead of the country in the field of high-precision technology. Once the country breaks through one generation, it will immediately open up the sales of products of one or even two generations more advanced;
According to industry standards, the next generation of 45~40nm is 32~28nm, and the next generation of 32~28nm is 22~20nm. If the West maintains this common sense and we get the situation right, they may directly open up lithography machines that support the 20nm process.
This will weaken domestic development in all aspects."
Then Chen Jiaxin expressed her opinion: "I think we can arrange for the communications business subsidiary to be established in Beijing to participate in the campaign."
After several people discussed it, the general direction was decided.
What everyone said makes sense.
The prerequisite for the so-called Wassenaar and other regulatory agreements to take effect is generational differences in products. To ensure this, the West is gradually expanding its advantages.
Putting aside those past make-it-better-buy operations, the current leadership in various industries, especially the semiconductor field, is very scary.
In fact, domestic commercially available lithography machines do not even have 90nm, and even more exaggeratedly, 130nm and 180nm are all in a semi-blank state.
However, now Starry Sky Semiconductor is directly using laboratory-grade 45nm products on the production line. From a practical point of view, this is considered commercial use.
Therefore, in common sense, the West will indeed at least let go of 32~28nm products.
This involves two major aspects. First, after liberalization, it will dampen the R&D enthusiasm of domestic manufacturers, because the products will be unsaleable and no one will be willing to use backward products.
The second is the construction or upgrading of a wafer production line, which involves many categories and the time cycle is not short. Regardless of the scary one-year starting cycle of EUV in the future, DUV also takes several months. Once selected,
For certain products, sales of products of the same level will drop sharply in at least the next three years.
Under the influence of these two factors, not to mention the gap in product experience due to the influence of experience, normal commercial companies, whether state-owned or private, will directly fail.
The reality is similar. After Shanghai Microelectronics Assembly produced the 90nm front-end lithography machine, it has not launched new products for at least six years. As for whether there will be any longer, Wen Liang does not know.
If there were no crazy companies like Bolang, the result would still be a failure.
The gap is too big.
Just give up.
However, things are different now. Once the general direction is set, personnel from various departments under Bolang will form a team and work hard towards the goal.
The apparent goal is to open up sales channels for advanced process lithography machines in overseas markets.
The actual considerations include: reducing the attention of Starry Sky Semiconductor and improving domestic wafer production capacity to better support the development of the semiconductor industry chain.
Finally, Wen Liang mentioned: "Another thing is that it is expected that the Industrial and Information Technology Corporation will take the lead in establishing an integrated circuit fund early next year at the latest. The scale will be large. The original idea of the Galaxy Alliance can be promoted in advance."
Li Ze quickly responded: "Okay, okay, I will implement it as soon as possible."
"It just so happens that the sales performance of Redmi mobile phones is very good now. Nearly three million units have been sold today. It may be that Xiaosorghum's hunger marketing has left a sequelae to consumers, and they are all anxious to buy."
Finally, Wen Liang mentioned financial affairs: "Mr. Wang, please pay more attention to the financial pressure and financial strategies faced by the group recently, including the group's financial services."
Wang Wanyu nodded gently: "Understood."
As the God of Wealth of Bolang, her current business scope includes financial operation strategy management, group financial services, financing planning, risk management, etc.
Relatively speaking, it is the most complex position.
Especially in a company like Bolang that often requires large amounts of capital.
At the end of the meeting, several people chatted for a while.
This includes matters related to the press conference initially planned to be held in late August, including the ecological development of the Galaxy instruction set and the idea of the Galaxy Alliance, and of course the news about the Integrated Circuit Fund.
Wen Liang was very interested in the integrated circuit fund mentioned by Lao Maotou.
There were also some surprises. He had the impression that the fund was established in the second half of 2014, but now it seems that it will be one year ahead of schedule.
It will bring great benefits to Bolang's development of integrated circuits.
Speaking of which, it can be considered that Wen Liang fought for it on his own, and it is not the kind of thing that was missed, so it was a bit surprising.
He had not anticipated this development beforehand.
However, if it happens at this stage, it will definitely become a big opportunity for Bolang, and it will have more abundant funds to promote the progress of various researches in a violent mode.
…………
Coming out of the study, Wen Liang first saw Su Jian and Li Rang, who had taken a shower, sitting on the sofa, eating watermelon, blowing on the air conditioner, and watching cartoons.
Then I noticed that the TV screen was...strictly speaking, it was the "Nezha" animated series produced by BTI.
In the domestic market, resources are distributed through Orange Video and Baigoose’s video platforms. However, video platforms such as Baidu’s iQiyi and Youku Tudou, which have long been merged into one, do not have such resources.
Of course, Orange Video has already been launched on the TV platform. There is no need to cast the screen and it can be used alone on smart TVs that support application software.
With US$1.5 billion of capital invested, BTI's development efficiency is still very impressive. It has opened up multiple overseas regional markets and is fiercely competitive with Netflix in Asia, parts of Europe, and even some small places in North America.
Netflix has accumulated a lot of experience. It has spent a lot of effort and resources in transforming itself from a traditional enterprise to an online streaming media, but currently it only has one self-produced film and television series, "House of Cards."
On the other hand, although BTI was a latecomer, it spent 15 times the amount of Netflix's funds on the production level alone. It can be said that self-made movies, TV animations, etc. are blooming, and it seems to have more vitality in comparison.
But now BTI is actually not able to compete with Netflix, there are many gaps.
On the other hand, BTI has big plans. It not only targets Marvel and DC, the two major comic book giants that have set their sights on America, but also intends to get involved in the business scope of Hollywood. It has even begun production of its first overseas movie.
That's right, it's that little Nezha...it's just a big animated movie.
But, Wen Liang actually paid little attention to the little things about BTI. His biggest concern for BTI was that he launched the content summit in the early stage and then went to meet Fatty Wang.
Seeing Wen Liang's eyes fall on the TV screen, Su Jian said casually: "The cartoons produced by your company are quite good, suitable for all ages."
Before Wen Liang could answer, Su Jian had already changed the topic, with a curious look on his face: "Have you really started working to earn money for milk powder?"
"No, I just happened to receive a call from Lao Miaotou. I need to talk to the company about a small matter." Wen Liang replied frankly, "But I will be a little busy next."
As he said that, Wen Liang glanced at the misty sky outside the window: "Looking at the situation, it might rain tonight. How about we pack up and fly to a city that doesn't rain before the rain comes?"
"Ah?" Su Jian was stunned for a moment, and then realized, "Oh, okay, I'll take care of it right now."
Then Su Jian pulled Li Rang, who was still immersed in the cartoon: "Rang, I will watch the animation on the tablet later, we went out to play."
Li Rang: "..."
Soon, Su Jian took Li Rang and started to clean up briefly, while Wen Liang went to take a shower and change his clothes.
Before six o'clock, the three of them had already set off for the airport.
This is probably the fastest-paced one... a trip that just goes away.
For today's gentle life, it is just a matter of course.
